Late 2010 All lyrics by Keith Cook ©2010
Cruel Ground
It's been so long ago
the way the tide pulls
the sun rays and moon beams
so far away from me
cruel ground
Darkened rays of light
nothing here under firelight
I've seen this long ago
now I can't say I know
I will wait here
as long as I can
for you

Late 2010 All lyrics by Keith Cook ©2010
All My Life
It's a tradition of my own it comes from being alone
but if you're looking for that part in me you can search
but it's something you'll never find
with a heart that's colder than ice, all my life
if you see the sun, if you see the light, it's alright
you can do whatever you'd like
It's that piece that made you blind
with a heart that's darker than night
if your looking there I'll be waiting where you'll never find
A heart that's slicker than black ice if you need to ask
I've already paid the price
Paved the road, saved the map
but I don't know where I'll find you at
or what state you'll be in
will we meet again are you just a friend
All my life I've been searching to pay the price
Is this love again or is it just the end of all of this
the boundaries we've searched within
It's alright you can do whatever you like
Is it love again or is is just the end of all of this
the boundaries we searched within
It's alright you can do whatever you like
It's love again. Cause in the end it's all that's really
worth searching for that means anything
All my life, I've been willing to pay the price
It's so beautiful all that we could do
If you just let the light melt the black ice around your heart
Anywhere cause nobody seems to care
Anywhere I won't be far from there
waiting calling out into the night
All my life
Did you see me there?
Did you hear I care?
Was there no one there
searching without any light
I can't find the words that once were there
With a tongue as sharp as a knife
All my life
If you can see me read between the words that are written there
All my life
All my life
I've been waiting for you to chose it too
Breath a spark of life into the night
Into my breathless night
I can see the walls built up around though you pretend there are not at all
Breathe a spark of life into my dark sunlight
Breathe a spark of life into the sunlight
Breathe a spark of life into the speechless night
If you want you can stay here all my life
Breathe a spark of life into my black sunlight
black light sun
sun black light
Breathe a spark of light into a soul that's black sunlight
black sun light
Shine a light into my black sunlight
Shine your light into my black sunlight
Shine your life into my black sunlight
Shine your light into my black sunlight
Shine your light
Into the darkest night
Souls black sunlight
All my life
If you see me there it's just a reflection I'm not there
I'm unseen a go between
I make what I believe
All my life
And a soul that's blacker than white
and if you can't get there I'll come to where you are
And I love you very, love you very, love you very much

Late 2010 All lyrics by Keith Cook ©2010
Soul Connection Jive
Yeah you heard every word I said
but you didn't know what I mean
picking up the broken pieces of what their use to be
Aces and Eights in dire fates
but I don't have time for that scene
all the different angles hanging around where you use to be
You're my favorite soul connection
You're my favorite soul
I know you think you know it all
but you don't know where I've been
skipping like stones the pieces of what I'm suppose to be
constant mistakes and showing up lates
and I don't have time for your scene
or all the different people hanging around what I use to be
Yeah they think they know what is there
but they don't know what they've seen
half cocked rock tick tock what you think you'll be
friends to ends crooks and bends
and I don't have time for that scene
all the crowds they're built up around
don't mean a thing to me

Late 2010 All lyrics by Keith Cook ©2010
Disconnected Dots
There are dots without any numbers
for the lines to connect
out there in the dark
where there aren't any colors
No way to connect
What do you think you know about that?
Cash paid into the dark
Blood money receipt
What do you think you know about that?
And there's no way to get back.
Where ya at?
Blood money receipt empty promise
Envy promise
Sending you back to where you started
Given back your empty promise
Given back you lost reason
Taken back cause it's killing season
without rhyme or reason
swine
stray cat
send you back
with your stray act
Run home to mommy
Where you at?
Should have never crossed my path
9 volt black cat
how's the the electricity where you're at
yeah anytime
9 volt act
What you know about that.
Crisp and black
How's that for frying down
Caught in your kitty litter box slow quicksand trap
What you know about that.
Camouflage broken nose job
what you know about that.
Fake blue eyes
fake blue smile
faking my style
put you back in your place
better by the country mile
There's no Connection
dead connection on the line
no way to connect
What do you think you know about that?

Late 2010 All lyrics by Keith Cook ©2010
Song Cancellation
I can't remember what it was I said that made you care
I can't remember what I did
This where you were suppose to be
Pacification through absorption
no thank you
I don't think so
I'm not burnt out
I can still see you shine
Where there's spark left there's hope
but for now we're through
I can still see you shine through
Be the spark that ignites
What was it I said that night
What made it so special
what makes me different
what is it that you saw in me
song cancellation

Late 2010 All lyrics by Keith Cook ©2010
All I Can Think Of
I can see the light in you
you look through the dark to me
I've seen you light up
I want to hold you there
Our love
I know you know
Our love
I know it shows
It doesn't matter where we go
No matter what the future holds
This heart will always be around
even though you're hidden underground
that's just the way it goes
It doesn't have to be
We fit together like a lock and key
And I can see
You count the clock in me
I don't know why it came to be
Don't know why this is where time brought me
I don't need clear eyes to see
the spark I set of in you you set off in me
Our love
It's all I can think of

Late 2010 All lyrics by Keith Cook ©2010
Fortunes Thrown Away
Looking out the window
at the years falling on the glass like rain
they are colors bending out with sun
onto the road I'm on
All the things that have come and gone
eternal marks where I was holding on
to all the thing I let go
slip by but I'll never fade away
somethings I'll never let go of
somethings change
somethings never will
somethings will always be the same
fortunes thrown away
Out on the street
Children are playing
laughing so soft and sweet
lullabys passing in the night
imaginations running wild
all that's still left to be
I'm running out of time
and time there's no such thing
just an object in motion
somewhere out there
the other side of my window

Late 2010 All lyrics by Keith Cook ©2010
Prescribe Me
What you say that is wrong with me
make me safe and make me sane
change my life
what's you're expectation
I know the perfect place we should meet
And I'll see you down on Worry Street
Tell me what you want me to be
Down on Worry Street
Dark allies
Down on Worry Street
Have you got a cure for me
then prescribe me
Tell me how it is to be just like you
make me safe make me sane
change heart
change my mind
change what I see
poverty
starvation
gifts from the banking industry
That's just what it is make me make sense
make me normal
give me that clue
I'll put it where that place is I think about you
grade point average down to zero

Late 2010 All lyrics by Keith Cook ©2010
For Years
I've seen every door in your city
Seen the gates open and close
Seen the keepers fate
Know him by name
Walked through demolished buildings
I didn't want to go to the show
but they gave me the ticket
and here I am patiently listed
enlisted
It's been the same for years
Police State Rock&Roll
I only did what I had to do to survive
I'm innocent of your crime
Seen the incline and decline
and I know what you got for me
it's still the same as it use to be
nothing changes
the puzzles pieces rearrange
the picture is little fish
in little red mud puddles
little people and all they do is talk
I've been to all your church doors
and steeples where you worship
Gateway to the East
Gateway to the West
Portal through the serpents nest
Stars falling down on boulevards
At the night the city goes to sleep
Been down so many empty streets

Late 2010 All lyrics by Keith Cook ©2010
Forgotten Memory Town
I've been down and I'm going slow
Slow down the way I go
No one knows enough to care
Can't say I feel the same
but I've been there
Lame. limp, strutting walk
Lame, gimp, stupid talk
Been all over your forgotten town
or does it come to memory
I'll write it down
Slow down slipping' through the night
No it's not okay but I feel alright
Been so down but now I'm up tight
Tripping' out in the dark sky light
Coming down so down low
Let enough for anyone to know
Come and gone by and come again
Doesn't really matter
it's the same in the end

Late 2010 All lyrics by Keith Cook ©2010
All in One
Night time falls into the light what I might find
I didn't mean for you to get caught between the truth
Different shades of love
Soul season why. Soul reason why.
Light is so many colors.
A light in the night
Alive in the night
I didn't ask you - I didn't ask you too
I didn't ask you for anything
I'll never ask anything of you
